Activated Nometex Device
Nometex Device that is activated so will be sending electrical pulses to the median nerve which will travel through afferent nerve fibers to the emetic centers of the brain. It is in these areas that the neurotransmitters modulate signals going to the stomach via the Vagus nerve. These electrical signals normalize the stomach rhythms, thereby alleviating nausea and vomiting.
